NAACP Georgia State President Edward DuBose, Rev. Raphael Warnock and Campaign Director with Amnesty International Laura Moye hold a press conference in support of death row inmate Troy Davis at Ebenezer Baptist Church on September 20, 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Zero physical evidence. Convicted on eyewitness alone. Seven of nine eyewitnesses recant. Looks like the state of Georgia still does lynchings.

I feel Justice is not being done here. He should not be executed with this amount of doubt. There are serious flaws in the Justice system where murderers like OJ Simpson can walk free and this guy gets executed with such little evidence.

The “doubt” that you people talk about has been created by his attorneys and liberal sympathizers.

Most of you probably do not know that an hour before he killed the officer he shot another man and was convicted of that crime. The bullets from the first shooting match those at the scene of the officer’s killing.

The seven people who supposedly have “recanted” their testimony have refused to testify under oath in a courtroom. All they have done is sign a piece of paper prepared by his attorney’s.

If you study the trial transcript you will see that there is no “doubt”. He is a murderer.

MKadyman

Wrong. Bullet casings from his first shooting an hour before match those at the murder scene. That is called physical evidence but you will never hear it from the liberal media.

Davis is as guilty as hell and people only want to “save” him because he is black, and they have been watching too many untruthful Hollywood movies. The guy Red Coles or whatever wasnt even there when Davis shot his first victim that night. The protestors are all self righteous white people. Even black people know he is guilty, which is sayting something. Dont break your arms patting yourselves on the back so vigorously guys.

You know who’s also scheduled for execution today? James Russell Brewer, one of the men who dragged James Byrd behind a pickup truck.

If you want to express how awful the death penalty is, why not use that as your example case.

Please pray for the comfort of Troy Davis family and friends as well as the state of Georgia and our justice system.

Was justice really served? It appeared the state of Georgia was determined to put Troy Davis death. They didn’t want no one telling them that they had the wrong person. Looks extremely bad on them for keeping a man in prison all this time when he was innocent.

I believe if they could have executed him after the first sentence they would have. All you knew was that one of your own police officers were killed, someone pointed a finger, Davis guilty with no evidence.

This state of Georgia was determined to hang this man and they did through other means.

The sad thing about this is that two innocent men were killed. Mark MacPhail in 1989. And now Troy Davis in 2011.

Is this now a closed chapter in the lives of those who felt justice has finally been served or will this continue until the state of Georgia be proven wrong about Davis and be known as the shame state where they commit legalized killings?
